If you are a member of a national association we might be a little different as we focus on the regional area. We have regional events and conduct bi-weekly webinars to help all of the members in our association to become better professional photographers. We can help with insurance as well as providing you the framework to succeed with sample contracts, legal forms and client checklists.

Choosing the best alarm system for your photography equipment is not that easy as you may think. There are a lot of things to consider in having a top notch system. One thing to consider is the types of monitoring services offered. The first type is the traditional way that uses landline monitoring. Most companies are still providing this basic service. The disadvantage of this is that since the wires are typically outside your home, a thief could easily cut it, disabling the communication between the system and the monitoring station.

The second type of monitoring service is through internet-based connections. The communication between the system and monitoring station uses an existing internet connection. Even though this is a new technology, it is not the best choice because like a landline, it also relies on wires found outside your home.
